Peanut Butter Banana Overnight Oats
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup milk (any kind)
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 1 ripe banana, half mashed + half sliced
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- Pinch of cinnamon
- Toppings: sliced banana, granola, drizzle of peanut butter
Instructions
- In a jar or container, combine oats, milk, Greek yogurt, peanut butter, mashed banana half, honey, chia seeds, and cinnamon.
- Stir until everything is well combined.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight (at least 4 hours).
- In the morning, give it a stir. Add a splash of milk if too thick.
- Top with sliced banana, granola, and an extra drizzle of peanut butter. Eat cold or microwave for 90 seconds.
Recipe Tips
- Use old-fashioned rolled oats, not instant — they hold their texture better overnight.
- Chia seeds thicken the mixture and add omega-3s. Don’t skip them.
- Make 5 jars on Sunday night for the whole workweek.
- Try variations: chocolate PB (add cocoa powder), apple pie (diced apple + cinnamon), berry (swap banana for mixed berries).
